Reading this while breastfeeding my kid: what if my tits dangled right below my ass, i pooped standing up, never showered, and tried to pass off my milk as a health product

I once got snowed in for almost a week in mammoth and let me tell you, the collective cheering coming from the hotel parking lot every 15 mins on the first clear day was intoxicating

The year is 2000. You & your bff are smoking weed from an aluminum can and playing tony hawk pro skater in some guys house. You smoke yourself into the future: you, 25 yrs older, trying to locate the lost kpop demon hunter costume for your 5yr old. Surely not you think before hitting the can again.

A dishwasher but with Toddler Mode, they can hit any button they like and it wont mess up your settings. Also, big beeps and bright lights flash while they do whatever they wish.

Got invited to a kids bday party and the address on the invite is latitude/longitude coordinates and it’s fair to say this is weird right? (And no, they are not in a rural area, they are in a large subdivision)

This take is really sticking with me today. Imagine being pissed people are taking their kids to school. Imagine believing school buses are ubiquitous. Imagine enjoying a few extra moments with your kid in the morning. ALSO THERE ARE NO FUCKING BUSES IN OUR DISTRICT CAI.
Why the fuck is everybody dropping off their kid at school personally like a little chauffeur? Put them on the fucking bus, you're not a fuckin driver. You're not a fucking slave.

One of the many reasons AI can't produce good writing is it can't hate its own writing. It can't think to itself "Maybe I'm illiterate" during the writing process. And that's essential

I have survived 238 days of solo parenting this year. Will be 252 by the end of the year. I used to be fun and chill. And now…I dont know what I am. But certainly not fun and chill.
